Venture-Backed Ipos And The Exiting Of Venture Capital In China, Xiaoqing Eleanor Xu
Venture-Backed Ipos And The Exiting Of Venture Capital In China, Xiaoqing Eleanor Xu
The Journal of Entrepreneurial Finance
This paper documents the dramatic improvement in institutional, legal and regulatory environment for the exiting of foreign venture capital in China. It also discusses the recent developments, advantages and disadvantages of various China venture-backed IPO listing channels, including overseas listing through the main board and high-tech trading board in the United States (via New York Stock Exchange and NASDAQ), Hong Kong (via Hong Kong Stock Exchange and Hong Kong Growth Enterprise Market) and Singapore (via Singapore Exchange and SESDAQ), and domestic listing (via Shenzhen Small and Medium Enterprise Board). Finally, this paper examines the venture capital funding and IPO offering …
Humanitarian Landmine Action In China And The Role Of The Ngo, Zhai Dequan
Humanitarian Landmine Action In China And The Role Of The Ngo, Zhai Dequan
The Journal of Conventional Weapons Destruction
Though China is not a State Party to the Ottawa Convention, the country has long been involved in humanitarian efforts to alleviate the landmine problem. Nationally, China has launched mine clearance campaigns, and has become a State Party to the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons. Two organizations have also been established to alleviate the landmine problem. Internationally, China has sponsored several mine-clearance workshops, and has promoted international partnerships to work toward mine clearance.
Dynamic Relationship Of Steel Prices Between Two Different Markets:Taiwan And Mainland China, Yong-Huang Lin, Yun-Wu Wu
Dynamic Relationship Of Steel Prices Between Two Different Markets:Taiwan And Mainland China, Yong-Huang Lin, Yun-Wu Wu
Journal of Marine Science and Technology
Price variation is one of the major factors taken into account in cost control decision in construction projects. Previous researches have focused on the short-term price prediction of a merchandise within a closed single market without considering the long-term effect by interacting with other markets. The econometric methods such as structural break test, co-integration analysis, and Granger causality test were used to examine the dynamic short-term and long-term relationships of steel prices between two different markets, Taiwan and China, over the period of 1995 ~ 2004. The steel price of China was found to have the leading discovery function by …

Trips: With A Painful Birth, Uncertain Health, And A Host Of Issues In China, Where Lies Its Future, Allan Segal
Trips: With A Painful Birth, Uncertain Health, And A Host Of Issues In China, Where Lies Its Future, Allan Segal
San Diego International Law Journal
In recent decades, the United States and other western nations have used pragmatic and theoretical reasons to justify a strong, global intellectual property ("IP") regime. From a practical perspective, economically mature nations clearly have a direct, vested interest in preventing the piracy of patented goods and ensuring that their domestic agendas maximize financial protection for inventions or creations. Nevertheless, the supranational disregard of patent protection and IP piracy has a financial impact on numerous companies, as well as the taxpaying citizens, in developed countries. These disparate foundations for basic IP rights result in a haphazard theoretical grounding to the Agreement …
The Politics Of Indigenization: A Case Study Of Development Of Social Work In China, Miu Chung Yan, Kwok Wah Cheung
The Politics Of Indigenization: A Case Study Of Development Of Social Work In China, Miu Chung Yan, Kwok Wah Cheung
The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare
Internationalization and indigenization are dialectical processes of knowledge transfer. However, social work literature has paid scant attention to the process of indigenization, which can best be understood as one of recontextualization. This paper introduces Basil Bernstein's theory, which contends that recontextualization is a political process, as an analytical tool for us to understand the politics of indigenization. To demonstrate the usefulness of this tool, this paper analyzes how, in China, the Ministry of Civil Affairs and social work academics interactively compete for this control.
Study On Vertical And Lateral Leaching Of Nitrate From A Wheat Field In China, Md. Toufiq Iqbal
Study On Vertical And Lateral Leaching Of Nitrate From A Wheat Field In China, Md. Toufiq Iqbal
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
Vertical and lateral leaching of nitrate from a wheat field was studied through one season in a field in China by applying increasing amount of N fertilizers (e.g. 90, 180, 270 and 360 kg ha^{-1}). Results showed that nitrate leaching was the dominating way of nitrate loss from wheat land during the first two month after sowing seeds. After irrigation, the nitrate concentration in the leachate of 30 cm soil layer was higher than that of 60 cm, while the concentration of nitrate leaching at the five N treatments through the two depth soil layer came into the same level …
Paper Dragon: Inadequate Protection Of Intellectual Property Rights In China, Omario Kanji
Paper Dragon: Inadequate Protection Of Intellectual Property Rights In China, Omario Kanji
Michigan Journal of International Law
This Note will explore the extent to which China is in violation of its obligations under TRIPs. Section I surveys the current state of IPR infringement in China. Section II analyzes relevant TRIPs provisions, case law, and treaties that supplement TRIPs provisions. Section III analyzes Chinese criminal law, the December 2004 Judicial Interpretation of Chinese criminal law, and Chinese IP law as they pertain to IPR infringement. Section IV outlines enforcement efforts in China against the backdrop of the law analyzed in the previous section. Section V evaluates these enforcement efforts given China's capabilities and obligations, and Section VI concludes …
Global Markets And The Evolution Of Law In China And Japan, Takao Tanase
Global Markets And The Evolution Of Law In China And Japan, Takao Tanase
Michigan Journal of International Law
The first angle of this Article concerns the exclusivity of rights, which is the notion that a right has an exclusive boundary of ownership. The socialist system and traditional customary law in China gave only weak recognition to this concept, especially prior to China's move toward a market economy and the introduction of modern law. The second angle addresses the functionality of extralegal norms. Law reforms tend to be measured by the efficiency gains they produce, a process intensified by competition among systems. The third angle involves the ideological nature of the market-oriented development of law. The foreign enterprises and …
How Does Culture Count In Legal Change?: A Review With A Proposal From A Social Movement Perspective, Setsuo Miyazawa
How Does Culture Count In Legal Change?: A Review With A Proposal From A Social Movement Perspective, Setsuo Miyazawa
Michigan Journal of International Law
We have in this volume four articles on legal change in China and Japan written by four distinguished authors. These articles vary with regard to subject state, specificity of issues, and breadth of analytical scope. They commonly discuss one factor, however: culture. The purpose of this Comment is to examine the way each article uses culture in its explanations of legal change. The Comment concludes with a brief suggestion, from a social movement perspective, on employing culture as an explanatory tool in a non-essentialist way.
The Law And The Non-Law, Katharina Pistor
The Law And The Non-Law, Katharina Pistor
Michigan Journal of International Law
This brief Comment reflects on the construction of the "non-law" as analytical categories in the four contributions. It suggests that the struggle with "non-law" reflects a deeper confusion about the role of law in ordering social relations broadly defined.
What Have We Learned About Law And Development? Describing, Predicting, And Assessing Legal Reforms In China, Randall Peerenboom
What Have We Learned About Law And Development? Describing, Predicting, And Assessing Legal Reforms In China, Randall Peerenboom
Michigan Journal of International Law
This Article applies existing conceptual tools for describing, predicting, and assessing legal reforms to the efforts to establish rule of law in China, in the process shedding light on the various pathways and methodologies of reform so as to facilitate assessment of competing reform strategies. While drawing on China for concrete examples, the discussion involves issues that are generally applicable to comparative law and the new law and development movement, and thus it addresses

A King Who Devours His People: Jiang Zemin And The Falun Gong Crackdown: A Bibliography, Michael J. Greenlee
A King Who Devours His People: Jiang Zemin And The Falun Gong Crackdown: A Bibliography, Michael J. Greenlee
International Journal of Legal Information
In July 1999, the government of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) began an official crackdown against the qigong cultivation group known as Falun Gong. Intended to quickly contain and eliminate what the PRC considers an evil or heretical cult (xiejiao), the suppression has instead created the longest sustained and, since the Tiananmen Square protests of June 1989, most widely known human rights protest conducted in the PRC. The Falun Gong has received worldwide recognition and support while the crackdown continues to provoke harsh criticism against the PRC as new allegations of human rights …
From Pirates To Partners (Episode Ii): Protecting Intellectual Property In Post-Wto China, Peter K. Yu
From Pirates To Partners (Episode Ii): Protecting Intellectual Property In Post-Wto China, Peter K. Yu
American University Law Review
In From Pirates to Partners: Protecting Intellectual Property in China in the Twenty-First Century, I criticized the ineffectiveness and short-sightedness of the U.S.-China intellectual property policy. As I argued, the approach taken by the administration in the 1980s and early 1990s had created a cycle of futility in which China and the United States repeatedly threatened each other with trade wars only to back down in the eleventh hour with a compromise that did not provide sustainable improvements in intellectual property protection. Since I wrote that article five years ago, China has joined the WTO and undertook a complete overhaul …

Protectionist Capitalists vs. Capitalist Communists: CNOOC's Failed Unocal Bid in Perspective by Francis Schortgen
China, Inc. is on the move. Whether or not this presents a welcome development for particular political and/or business interests – not just in the United States but worldwide – it is a reality that cannot be ignored, wished away, or warded off with protectionist measures in the medium- to long-term. The real question is: What is an appropriate China strategy in the age of Chinese multinational corporations? How and to what extent does the U.S. government’s current China strategy have to be revised so …
Law And Culture In China And Japan: A Framework For Analysis, John O. Haley
Law And Culture In China And Japan: A Framework For Analysis, John O. Haley
Michigan Journal of International Law
This Comment is divided into two parts. The first sets forth a series of definitional propositions intended for a more general analysis of the interrelationships of law and culture. The second comprises an introduction to the evolution of legal institutions that enables us to understand better the reception and development of Western legal institutions in East Asia and provides context for the four articles and their individual and collective insights.
Signaling Conformity: Changing Norms In Japan And China, David Nelken
Signaling Conformity: Changing Norms In Japan And China, David Nelken
Michigan Journal of International Law
Whatever their differences, the articles in this issue also have much in common in addition to their regional focus. The author of this Comment shall discuss in turn three (related) theoretical issues that arise, to a greater or lesser degree, in all four contributions. The first Part of this Comment considers the insights of these articles on the need to move from discussing transplants to focusing on transnational legal processes. The second Part examines what the contributions tell us about culture, legal culture, and the so-called "norm of conformity." I shall concentrate in particular on the cultural sources of choices …
Law, Norms, And Legal Change: Global And Local In China And Japan, Nicholas C. Howson, Mark D. West
Law, Norms, And Legal Change: Global And Local In China And Japan, Nicholas C. Howson, Mark D. West
Michigan Journal of International Law
The editors of the Michigan Journal of International Law have boldly brought together four articles and commentary that focus on different aspects of the same problem in China and Japan: the relationship between domestic legal change and foreign and/or "international" law and regulation, "soft" agreements, norms, or even cultural practices. The compilation is bold in part because scholarship on change in East Asian law and legal systems often suffers from one of two defects. First, it often focuses on purely domestic phenomena in only one system, ignoring the comparative connections. Second, scholars often attack the problem from an exclusively comparative …
Choice Of Law In Contracts: A Chinese Approach, Mo Zhang
Choice Of Law In Contracts: A Chinese Approach, Mo Zhang
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
This article attempts to emphasize that the choice of law analysis in China is distinct from that of other countries, despite the fact that many of the theories and approaches originate in Western countries. The underlying argument is that the ongoing economic reform in China has become a dramatic and driving force for change in the country. This change necessarily shapes the development of choice of law in China in a unique way, and also de. monstrates how China is getting closer to the rest of world while searching for the "China brand" theory and approach in this regard. What …
